That was a good episode, they seem to be hitting their stride.

Still skip the star segment though, but I suppose it's cheap filler to bulk up the episode.

As always I need to chime in that I have 204 (566mb copy) downloaded. Will watch later & report back.

No comments? What gives!?

Anyhow....

204. Top notch review by Hammond with that Big Mac 720S, (gay!?) Abbie takes it around the track with surprising results.

The Awards section on Conversation Street was rather funny. The celeb section not so much.

Lastly the “unscripted” challenge adventure was a great watch as well. James on his own vibe.

Mad respect to that TT RS, such a cool car.

Well I feel like today's episode was a love letter to all those who complain about how scripted the show is....

I didn't really enjoy the "unscripted" parts. The awards were top-notch though, a deserving victory by the Nissan Juke.

That 720 is a beast of a car and stunningly good looking, but I still don't know if I'd pick it over the 488.

Anyway, good episode.

I liked the awards. I want a nomad now.

Watching in 4K adds that much more to it.

Seriously, what did 4k add?

And I'd prefer to see the new driver's nipples if you must know.

If you only watch it for the entertainment, I guess you wouldn't understand. But if you are someone who watch it for the complete package, its adds that extra bit to enjoy. Especially the scenes where they show the beautiful scenery of the places they visit. I can only imagine the extra detail in 4k, but even 1080p over SD is brilliant. If I had a 4k tv, I would get the 4k version of the episode, simple as that.

Just finished, was ok, could've been better. They could have done a bit more with the mac.

I'm not saying anything bad about her, on the contrary actually think it's awesome they picked her.
Just saying it's interesting she advertise that little fact on Twitter,
I mean the illusionist Derren Brown is gay, but never advertised it,
She advertises the fact she is a lesbian, nothing wrong with that,

How does a little flag make her a Lesbian (or any of the other things it represents)?

You do realise you can support something without being included in it?

How many people have Ferrari flags but don't actually own one? What does that say about them?

I'm happy to watch GT in 720p. I don't think I am the *only* one who does this.

The waterfalls in Croatia were amazing, I think that might have been improved my 4k.

But I don't have a 4k screen, only a laptop screen to watch on. For the entertainment value, 720p works.

I asked that question on the 26th (except my example was Mercedes). No answer was forthcoming...
